Chapter 43: A Life Hanging by a Thread

  [Strongly recommended during this period, today's fourth update]

  "Since you're no longer the Cai Zhong of old, then I, Lei Yu, will have to take drastic measures!" On the brink of life and death, Lei Yu naturally couldn't care about so many things, survival was paramount.

  In the previous fight, he didn't consume too much true energy, just some weak output. Although he was seriously injured, Lei Yu still managed to make a fatal blow at the critical moment.

  Lei Yu and Cai Zhong were evenly matched, the powerful explosive attack would definitely leave Cai Zhong severely injured. Thinking of this, Lei Yu controlled the true energy within his body to slowly condense on his right arm in a moment of extreme crisis, and the lightning mark on his right arm also flickered slightly.

  These scenes were naturally invisible to outsiders, including Cai Zhong, and no one could detect them. Anyone watching was tense with worry for Lei Yu's life hanging by a thread. Even if Lei Yun Tian wanted to intervene now, it would be impossible. The leader of the Ming Cult was worried about such a situation arising, so his gaze never left Ouyang Xi Hong and Lei Yun Tian from start to finish.

  Cai's approaching death breath became more intense, and Lei Yu involuntarily moved his body backward, but the more he did so, the more Cai felt his weakness, which further stirred up his bloodlust.

  With his feet firmly on the ground, he burst upwards, Cai Zhong trying to take down Lei Yu in one move, for he had already lost his rational thinking.

  The "whooshing" sound of the wind left everyone holding their breath, this blow might have just taken Lei Yu's life, and Ai Er directly fainted. Xiao Fei originally wanted to hold her, but was pushed away by Nuo Hu, Ai Er fell into her brother's arms.

  "Ah!"

  At the extreme of Cai Zhong's arrival in front of Lei Yu, Lei Yu gritted his teeth and punched out a fist, this circle condensed all his strength. Lei Yu did not expect that Cai Zhong would have such a move, able to disappear instantly in the thick black smoke and arrive behind him, otherwise there would not be such a severe injury. But the situation in front of him was desperate. Suddenly, the yellow power in Lei Yu's mind surged up, pulling back his desperate heart, and he regained his sanity once again.

  Tsai Chung's dark energy erupts from the ground, first spinning his short blade before suddenly thrusting forward and unleashing a flurry of consecutive attacks!

  "Whoosh!"

  "Whoosh!"

  Two loud explosions.

  Lei Yu still hadn't made a move, he was waiting for the best opportunity, at this critical moment there couldn't be even a slight deviation.

  Cai Zhong's mouth twitched with a hint of cold smile. The next move directly used the Blood Blade's death aura to kill Lei Yu, if it was that easy to solve Lei Yu, it would be too simple, but Cai Zhong, who had lost all his nature, didn't mind such simplicity. Cai Zhong's heart moved, and the Blood Blade disappeared from his left hand and reappeared above his right hand, like lightning, Cai Zhong's Blood Blade directly stabbed towards Lei Yu's heart, with a speed that reached its peak. "Clang~~~" A loud metallic collision sound rang out, Cai Zhong only felt his arm go numb, and he involuntarily flew back, Lei Yu gritted his teeth, strongly enduring the pain on his back, suddenly spun around, and stood up again, wiping away the blood from the corner of his mouth, coldly staring at Cai Zhong. Upon closer inspection, a white sharp blade had appeared in Lei Yu's hand, which seemed to be a sharp blade but was actually a pointed stake, no mistake, this was the very same pointed stake that fell off the back of the Ink Beast that day. The previous exchange looked slow, but it was actually as fast as lightning, from start to finish, the person with weaker strength in the field only felt their eyes flash, and the instant collision had already been completed.

  Lei Yu's long-accumulated power had not exploded yet, and he suddenly remembered his special soldier blade, which was far inferior to the Blood Blade in terms of sharpness. However, facing a moment of extreme danger when it wasn't the best time to punch, Lei Yu had no choice but to take out the pointed blade to resist. At this point, the pointed blade in his hand already showed cracks, and the Blood Blade was indeed not famous for nothing.

  The onlookers in the stadium were all stunned, wasn't Lei Yu already severely injured? Why did he still have the ability to resist? The crowd didn't know, but Lei Yu understood. Although the wound on his back was terrifying, it only damaged his skin and flesh. His skeleton had a metallic attribute, so it wouldn't be hurt. Moreover, his skin and flesh had been tempered and already had some resistance. However, Cai's attack just now came too suddenly, which led to his severe injury. Originally, Lei Yu's rationality was in chaos, but the yellow energy in his mind stabilized him instantly, allowing him to have the collision with the soldier just now.

  "Hmph, Cai Zhong, you indeed exceeded my expectations, however... you are truly cunning and sinister. Just now, you really caught me off guard and I wasn't fully prepared. But if this is all the strength you have, then it's a bit too weak." Lei Yu said with a cold smile.

  As soon as this was said, the whole scene erupted like a boiling pot. Lei Yu was clearly severely injured, so why could he still say such things? Was everything just now Lei Yu probing his opponent? But did he have to pay the price of being injured for that?

  However, Lei Yu's heart was filled with a sense of dread. The Cai Zhong in front of him, who had already lost his mind, had given him a feeling of death just now, and had launched two attacks in an instant. If his own mental state wasn't strong enough, he might have been killed by now.

  Not caring about Lei Yu's words, at this moment, the black aura on Cai Zhong's body became even more apparent, completely enveloping him in blackness. This made Lei Yu feel shocked once again.

  "Haha..." Cai Zhong's eyes flashed with a bloody light, "Lei Yu, if you think I only have this little bit of strength, then you're wrong! Prepare to die!"

  Another surge, Cai Zhong now suspended those black powers on the surface of his body to form a protective membrane, which had some protective effect. On the other hand, with the help of his connection with Blood Blade, this stab was enough to turn any life into silence.

  "Xiao Yu, be careful!" Nuo Yifeng rubbed her jade hands back and forth, constantly muttering to herself, while Nuo Yilong beside her also had a solemn expression.

  This match means Wuzong's reputation and strength, the implication of winning or losing is not trivial, and Xigong Xihong and some old guys from ancient martial arts families are also extremely nervous.

  Earlier, when Lei Yu was seriously injured, they thought it was all over, but unexpectedly, another turning point appeared, and everything depends on this collision.

  Cai Zhong's two hands tightly grasped the Blood Blade, which emitted a "hissing" sound like a black snake, and swiftly arrived at Lei Yu's ear, Opportunity!

  Lei Yu saw the opening in Cai Zhong's stance, Cai Zhong's target was his own chest, but his head had a huge opening, Lei Yu held the sharp spear with one hand to resist the Blood Blade's attack, and his right hand, which had been accumulating strength for a long time, tightened its power at the moment Cai Zhong arrived in front of him.

  Bang!

  "Whoosh!"

  "Ah!" The two exclaimed in unison, the hilt of the Blood Blade remained outside Lei Yu's chest, while the rest of it was plunged deep inside.
